Abstract

See full text

In a sewing machine equipped with an apparatus to terminate stitching at a predetermined point, the machine normally does not terminate stitching exactly at the desired predetermined point because the elastic nature of the workpiece causes the workpiece to stretch. A last stitch is added beyond the point where stitching terminates by the 'step sewing' apparatus of this invention. To perform step sewing, an operator inputs a stitch pitch for step sewing with a digital switch, then pushes a step sewing button. Based on the selected stitch pitch, a CPU reads selected stitch pitch data. The data is used by the CPU to control a stitch pitch setting mechanism. A stitching device then performs a single stitch at the selected stitch pitch. By selecting the proper stitch pitch, the last stitch can terminate at the desired termination point.
